Durability: The Polytech is known for using substandard parts compared to the original and would have to have many parts replaced before it became close to the original in spec. But you did express an interest in doing just that.

Actually, the Poly Tech is known for using parts that are as good as USGI. These parts include the chrome lined barrel, the receiver, the trigger group, and op rod. The bolt, rear sight, and stock are items that most change.

Holding Value: The Polytech might hold its value, but as soon as you start upgrading, unless you plan on not selling the rifle, you will probably just be throwing money in a hole

If you upgrade it with quality parts,
and have it built by a reputable M14 armorer it will hold it's value.
